The Friends Arena in Stockholm, Sweden will see hosts Sweden take on table-toppers Spain in a Euro 2020 Group F Qualifier match on Monday night (Tuesday morning 12.15 AM IST). Spain need just a single point to qualify for the main event through Group F. The 'La Rojas' were looking to book a spot in their last qualifier against Norway, but were held to a 1-1 draw after Bournemouth striker Joshua King equalised for the Norwegians from the penalty spot. Sweden, meanwhile, are second in Group F, having garnered 14 points so far.

Form guide 

Both teams are slated to advance through Group F. Sweden, however, will look to avenge their 0-3 defeat to Spain last time around. Sweden's last win over Spain came way back in 2006. Since then, Spain have gone on to dominate the Swedes in most of their meetings. Sweden will have to be wary of Spain's attack. Robert Moreno's men have been in fine form in the qualifiers. Spain have enjoyed a run of six straight wins in the qualifying competition. Sweden, meanwhile, have enjoyed a mixed bag of results. After succumbing to a crushing defeat against Spain, the Swedes bounced back with a 4-0 win over bottom-placed Faroe Islands. A draw against Norway followed, after which Sweden went on to win 4-0 at Malta.

Spain will be without the services of their most-capped player, Sergio Ramos after the Real Madrid defender was booked in the last match against Norway. Aside from Ramos, Roberto Moreno will have a full-strength squad at his disposal for the visit to the Friends Arena. Spain's defense will have to keep an eye on Sweden's in-form midfielder Sebastian Larsson. Larsson scored twice in Sweden's demolition of Malta. The former Arsenal midfielder has scored two goals and set up two assists in seven games for the Swedes so far.
